Rather than rely on someone else's views, you would be better going to Jessops and asking to use and handle both cameras and take shots with them yourself.

I wouldn't normally suggest using a retailer in this manner (too many people do it with all types of products and then go elsewhere to save a few pounds), but Jessops does offer to match any other prices if it is within its means.

Every camera handles and operates differently and you need to know you will be comfortable with one before actually getting out the plastic.
